Ex Machina is a cerebral science fiction thriller written and directed by Alex Garland. The story follows Caleb, a young programmer invited to a secluded research facility to administer a Turing test to Ava, a highly advanced humanoid robot created by the enigmatic tech CEO Nathan. As Caleb interacts with Ava, questions about consciousness, manipulation, and trust arise, blurring the lines between human and machine. Minimalist and thought-provoking, Ex Machina is a gripping meditation on technology and morality.
